Appreciation Is Expected To Increase By &Nbsp; Textile Exports Will Slow Down.

The global financial crisis in 2008 once slowed down the pace of exchange rate reform, narrowed the fluctuation of the RMB exchange rate, and even implemented the strategy of "pegging" the dollar in the past.

Two years later, on the 19 th of this month, a spokesman for the people's Bank of China said: "according to the domestic and international economic and financial situation and the balance of payments in China, the central bank has decided to further promote the reform of the RMB exchange rate formation mechanism and enhance the RMB exchange rate flexibility."

This marks a restarting of RMB exchange rate reform.

From the current point of view, the pace of RMB appreciation has been reopened, and the central parity of RMB against the US dollar has hit a new high of nearly 5 years after the central bank reiterated the second trading days after the reunification (22 this month).

This has to arouse our concern about the development of the industry.

At this stage, China's textile industry is in a critical period of increasing cost pressures and weak production and investment recovery. The revaluation of the RMB will undoubtedly bring greater negative impact on the industry.

It is expected that the export recovery of China's textile and clothing products will slow down in the second half of the year.

Foreign exchange reform leads industry development concerns again

The renminbi has gone through the dual track system of 1981~1993, the single managed floating exchange rate system in 1994~1997, the actual dollar fixation system in 1998~2005, the reference basket exchange rate system in July of July 2005 ~2008, and the US dollar system in July 2008 June.

All previous adjustments to the RMB exchange rate system have attracted wide attention both at home and abroad.

On the 19 th of this month, the central bank announced that it will continue to push forward the reform of the exchange rate system, restore the elasticity of RMB exchange rate and revisit a basket of currencies.

This exchange reform emphasizes that we should adhere to the market supply and demand and adjust it with reference to a basket of currencies to enhance RMB.

Prior to our analysis, we have repeatedly pointed out that the RMB appreciation will further weaken the export competitiveness of the entire textile and garment industry, and accelerate international orders to Vietnam, India, Pakistan and other neighboring countries. Not only will China's textile export enterprises suffer losses from foreign exchange settlement, loss of profits, export orders, and other losses, it will also affect the ability of the industry to absorb social employment, and the domestic market competition situation of textile and garment products will also aggravate with the slow recovery of export.

Textile export recovery will slow down or slow down

At present, China's textile industry's export recovery rate is still relatively fast.

According to our customs data, in 2010 1~5 months, China's total

First of all, the demand power of the international market is not sustainable, and the real demand recovery has not yet been formed, and when will the replenishment power continue to become the industry's concern.

Through the brutal inventory process during the financial crisis, the inventory compensation is inevitable in the process of economic recovery.

Strong demand for inventory compensation in developed economies such as the US and Europe has become an important driving force for the export of China's textile industry at this stage.

According to the US Department of commerce data, in 2010 April, the US business inventories continued to grow by 0.39%, while manufacturing inventories grew by 0.51%. However, both the growth rate of commercial inventories and the growth rate of manufacturing inventories showed a slowing trend.

At present, the demand for replenishment of commercial and industrial enterprises in developed economies is still continuing, and will continue to play a stimulating role in the export of China's textile and clothing products. However, with the gradual weakening of replenishment power in the international market, its positive pulling effect will continue to shrink.

The European debt crisis, Japan's economy is still sluggish, and US retail data unexpectedly slipped in May, which has become an important concern for us when the real demand for the international market will resume.

Secondly, the pressure on the cost of raw materials is too high. Although some export products have partially released the excessive upward pressure on the price of raw materials through the way of raising product prices, the pressure brought about by the unsynchronized price pmission is very limited.

According to the relevant data, by June 23rd, China's 328 grade domestic cotton has risen to 18089 yuan / ton, up 21.57% compared with the beginning of 2010.

According to China's customs data, in April 2010, the price of textile yarn exported by China increased by 5.88% compared with January this year, and the price of textile fabrics increased by 7.77% compared with January this year.

It can be seen that the cost pressure problem of textile enterprises is very prominent at present.

In addition, the current industry development is also faced with problems such as shortage of labor resources, rapid increase in labor costs, rising fuel power costs, and many uncertainties in the international trade environment.

At the moment, we have restarted the RMB exchange rate reform, which will undoubtedly cast a shadow over the prospects for the recovery of the industry's exports.

It is expected that the export recovery of China's textile and clothing products will slow down in the second half of the year.

Here, we must remind the vast majority of textile exporting enterprises to diversify their export markets, speed up the pace of product innovation and development, actively increase the added value of products, and choose financial instruments to avoid trade risk, so as to guard against the consequent trade risks.
